Luke's Baptism

Luke was baptized today! He was so nervous and excited this morning when he woke up. Trent's parents were able to come down as well as Taylor & Jen. Everything went so smoothly. The kids that were in attendance were reverent and the baptism was very wonderful! The spirit was so strong during the baptism and confirmation, and I hope Luke doesn't ever forget how he felt!

A bunch of the boy from Luke's primary class came to support Luke today, what great friends he has (Jase McDonald, Matthew Arnold, Benjamin Clark, Mitchell Baliff, Dillon Matthews)! Luke's primary teacher Brother Berry gave the talk on baptism and Grandpa Merlin gave the talk on the Holy Ghost. Luke was very excited b/c grandpa Merlin gave him a blanket to help him remember the Holy Ghost is a comforter...Luke has been carrying it all around! Thanks everyone who came or called to lend support to Luke!

Congratulations! I can't believe he's old enough to be baptized! What a wonderful time for your family and what a handsome boy!

Congrats Luke! Maggie is getting ready to be baptized in September, and she's trying to read the Book of Mormon too. She's a little discouraged, but I think knowing you could do it will encourage her. Wow...you are already being a great example! Three cheers for turning 8!
